Notes

'Sunny Pink' dotleaf waterlily (Nymphaea 'Sunny Pink') is a perennial for containers and water features. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and wet, loamy soil. The yellow-pink flowers have a yellow center and a sweet fragrance. Bees visit the blooms, and the plant spreads wide across the water.

Pairs well with Sweet flag, Fox sedge, and The King ostrich fern.
